"As for Pakistan's agriculture sector, over 75% of livestock owners are poor farmers owning less than four cows, and face a severe problem of low production rates. Despite this low productivity, Pakistan is the fifth largest milk producer in the world, yet still, it takes five Pakistani cows to produce as much milk as one cow in the US or Europe. The main factors hindering better milk productivity by smallholder farmers are a lack of focus on breed and gene-pool improvement of cows, poor farm management, and the use of the low-quality feed. Jassar Farms will work to improve breeding through artificial insemination using quality bull semen."
